Poem
Sue just couldn’t keep her hands off the buffet food She’d elbow her way into the queue – it was very rude! Finger foods were her favourite, she’d stuff them into her face Sue’s body wobbled like a jelly and she looked a complete disgrace Her legs they were like tree trunks and she had trouble with her knees The scales groaned when she stood on them - the numbers didn’t please! Her hubby put his foot in it when asked ‘do I look good in this tight dress’ He said you look like a baby hippo, and if I’m really honest you look a mess! Shocked at his honest answer Sue agreed that she had let herself go She would go to Weight Watchers and try and put an end to this woe Her excuse was her slow metabolism, which made her put on weight But in her head she knew the truth - it was the piles of food upon her plate Now placed on a controlled diet she couldn’t eat steak and kidney pies Only healthy food now touched her tongue, weight soon fell off her thighs Sue also joined an exercise class and made some lovely mates They would discuss the calories on their smaller dinner plates The food Sue missed the most was a huge mound of fish and chips But the diet and exercise worked – Sue re-discovered her long lost hips! Sue punched her fists in the air when she reached her target weight She regained all her self-confidence and now she’s looking great! Contest Body Parts Sponsored by Viv Wigley 09~10~16 Body parts used hands, elbow, finger, face, legs, knees, foot, head, kidney, tongue, thighs, hips, fists.
